I don't know who's reading my blogs... I don't even know if they are fascinating enough to be read. All the typos are embarrassing and yet I keep blogging without proofreading.
Maybe people just peak but don't read. There's no comments but I see there are views.
In any case, I am sorry I have not blogged in a while. MySpace is blocked at work, as is twitter and facebook... not that it matters, I could technically blog by typing up a word doc then emailing it to myself for a later posting, but I haven't done that either.
So here's the updates... Well the highlights, in no particular order, no time line, just stuff that's happened since my last blog.
- I keep thinking there is more to life that working at a cubicle earning money for someone else and getting paid to neglect 8 hours of my day to provide my skills to them It's not that I mind, it's just that I feel that my specific job, while valuable in this system, is not valuable enough in my own spiritual life... However I do see the good in it and see how it can make me stronger so I somehow learn to love it again... All in all I am grateful for my insurance job and happy that it allows me to live the life I want right now.
- I am increasingly excited about being a Jafra consultant... I stopped selling Avon. I became a Jafra manager! WOoo! I decided to help my mom sell Avon after all so I can distribute the remainder of the books I have. I am thinking Being a Jafra Manager was rushed but then I remind myself I can do anything I put my mind to and work hard at. So for July, I hope to recruit 10 gals and help them earn money.
- I really want to move to Weldon, CA. I want to live on my dad's ranch, and help make it a self sufficient ranch. Nate is excited too. We have a game plan to move there in a year or less.
- I want to make mini films, but I keep putting it off... all those great films I am keeping from you all... I am sorry. I will get on that this weekend!
- Sophie is such a great dog! I am sure Rocky is proud of me and Nate wherever she is in her after life. I am no longer filled with regret and see how I can now be the dog owner I always wanted to be. Granted, people piss me off with their opinions... Being a dog owner is like being a parent in a way, except your dog isn't going to go off into society to contribute or take from it. My point is, I love Sophie and am doing what I believe is best for her. Whether I should or shouldn't have a dog is no one's business. She's helped make Nate's and my life a much better one and she has it better than a lot of dogs out there just not as good as Paris Hilton's dog, or as good as some people believe their dogs have it. But she sleeps in our room, gets home cooked meals (special for dogs) made just for her, and we train her daily and take her on exploration trips. Not bad I say.
- I started Yoga. Yay yoga... but I am not consistent with it. In life you are either consistent or non existent... I need to be consistent.
- Nate's 26 this month... I'm a slob, so he asked for a clean apartment for his birthday... So I cleaned up... Now I must be consistent. BTW I got him a Stargate key chain which I converted into a necklace... it's bad ass I think. He loves it.
- Again with the ranch, I wanna move there.
- The band is doing great, we are slow in progress because Nate and I don't want to commute every weekend.... But still we are writing great music, or so I think, and getting ready to play shows.
- Nate and I were thinking about moving to Tustin, but my co-worker/friend and neighbor had a gut feeling it was a bad idea... Finally after I showed her the place she researched it and found horrible reviews... So Nate and I re-examined the decision and decided to stay here another year. We negotiated and rent is not going up after all. This place is like a resort and I love it here, Sophie loves it here, and Nate is right, "The more comfortable you are, the more creative you can be." I hope I didn't misquote. Either way, I think things worked out as they should. Also 20% of our rent goes into a credit fund towards a home purchase in the future if we buy through an affiliate company of the apartment owners... That's great cause we wanted to save up for that, hence wanting to move in the first place. See, let go of the imitation pearls and you'll get real ones. (Millionaire Mindset story reference).
- I picked up my saxophone... OMG I LOVE PLAYING IT! I forgot how sweet it sounds to me and how good it feels as I play it... but my lips hurt... I need to rebuild muscle. I still remember how to read music. Yay!
- Went to the ranch last weekend, and Nate and I had a blast. I love horses and can't wait to move there and feed, groom, and ride/train them everyday. never mind that I currently don't know how to do it, I know that I will!
- Again, I want to move to the ranch!
- I am cooking more and more and making due with what we have. We don't buy too many groceries cause stuff goes bad sometimes, but boy am I getting back into it! I love having my own kitchen.
- I've been slowly going through storage at my grandmas.... Holy poop I got a lot of stuff I need to bring back with me and stuff I need to sell off! I love all my books though and look forward to re-reading them.
- My grandma had a mini heart attack, but she is doing well right now. My mom updated me that they play Loteria every week. That's like Mexican BINGO. Nate and I got to play with them a couple weekends ago, now Nate wants that game. It is fun and you can learn spanish names for things.
- I got to go on my dad's new boat finally. I took photos and made him a fathers day picture book. He loved it. =)
- Did I mention I want to move to the ranch?
OK so that's a brief fill in of stuff, there's more but that's what stood out and all I was willing to share. I don't wanna complain anymore and I feel that's all I've done in the past.
I'll try to update more.
Love,
Syren
